The eastern bent-winged bat (Miniopterus fuliginosus) is an insectivorous bat that lives in the caves, throughout Japan [11]. The bats aggregate in cave in populations of tens to thousands of individuals. We examined the mitochondrial D-loop sequences of bats in Wakayama, Japan, and divided them into 35 haplotypes. The sequences of 3 haplotypes in Wakayama were the same as those of 10 Miniopterus fuliginosus individuals living in China. Given the substitution rate of the D-loop region, we speculated that the bats had moved between Japan and China within the last 16,000 years. We could not determine how the bats crossed the sea; however, it is possible that the bats undergo dynamic movement widely throughout East Asia.
东方折翼蝠（Miniopterus fuliginosus）是一种食虫蝙蝠，生活在日本各地的洞穴中[11]。这些蝙蝠在洞穴中聚集，数量从几十只到数千只不等。我们检测了日本和歌山县蝙蝠的线粒体D-loop序列，并将它们分为35个单倍型。和歌山县3个单倍型的序列与生活在中国的10只东方折翼蝠个体的序列相同。根据D-loop区域的替代率，我们推测这些蝙蝠在过去16000年内曾在日本和中国之间迁徙。我们无法确定蝙蝠是如何跨海的；然而，蝙蝠有可能在整个东亚地区进行广泛的动态移动。
